VIRTUALBOX BRIDGED ADAPTER HOW TO

The following assumes a Windows Host (Linux hosts probably have similar capabilities but I don't know Linux): If it doesn't, even after updating the Wi-Fi adapter card driver, then you won't be able to Bridge with Wi-Fi.) Use the wired Ethernet NIC for the Virtualbox connection - Bridged does not always work with Wi-Fi, due to poorly-written host Wi-Fi adapter drivers and/or wireless access point firmware. (Laptops often have both wired Ethernet and Wi-Fi NICs. Get one installed if you don't have one now. OK, so you will need a separate NIC for the Virtualbox Bridged connection.

To get outside PCs to see and use the NATted guest's services, ports have to be opened, just like in a real router. NAT allows only one guest, NAT Network allows one or more guests in the same NATted network. Virtualbox's NAT and NAT Network can also get access to the physical LAN, but there's a virtual 'router' between the guest(s) and the LAN that acts rather like the physical router at you house interfacing your house PCs to the internet.

VIRTUALBOX BRIDGED ADAPTER HOW TO

If you need isolation, post back and we'll tell you how to do it. It is possible to isolate the physical NIC so only the Virtualbox guest can Bridge to it and not the host OS. Bridged puts the guest on the same network that the physical NIC is connected to. If you are trying to connect a guest to the physical world with unlimited back-and-forth network traffic, it is almost inevitable that you are going to use Virtualbox's Bridged in the guest connection. So All I could say is to take a look at the manual, section 6, on the kinds of network Virtualbox can make.

The Wikipedia page is even harder to understand. I had a bit of trouble interpreting your info, Poolaka, so I searched what an SDN network was.
